This is a completely modern well insulated cabin/guest house to the main residence.
The guest house accommodates four adults, has its own private entrance, a kitchenette, full bath and wood stove.
A perfectly private retreat.
Accommodations include a full bed, (new 7/20/17 memory foam topped mattress with a feather bed mattress topper, down duvet and Pima cotton sheets. )
There is a long comfy couch that is more like a day bed/futon, and foam sleeping pads if needed.
The kitchenette is lightly stocked, with beverages, snacks, tea and coffee we even provide fire wood for the wood stove,
Very best regards,
Tony and Heather

Our home was the original home in Riverwood development. We are surrounded by mature trees and landscaping. The grounds are well defined. River access is just a short walk down the road.Roads are plowed in the winter months as needed. The cabin has auxiliary power in the event of an outage, and electric heat in addition to the fire place. Our water system is professionally maintained and may be the best tasting tap water on the planet.

Absolutely beautiful cosy cottage hidden deep in the mountains. A lovely drive and amazing location. The hosts are very accommodating and provide a great pad. Thanks Heather and Tony!!

Jemima2017-06-17T00:00:00Z

What a great little cottage! If you're looking for a place that'll get you easy access to the great trails in the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest, stay here. We loved the privacy and quaintness, and convenience to the nearby small towns without actually being in one.

Todd2017-08-05T00:00:00Z

A group of friends and I stayed at Tony & Heather's Seven Gables (including the cottage) for a weekend wedding nearby. The two of them are responsive and communicative -- we had a slight issue with the door, which Tony and Heather helped resolve quickly and without much hassle. The homes were beautiful and cozy, and it's a wonderful place to enjoy a relaxing weekend. Highly recommend! Thanks!

Ben2017-08-13T00:00:00Z

absolutely charming, cozy and quaint!

ramona2017-06-09T00:00:00Z

Cozy detached space. Wonderful for visiting the river that is a couple blocks down. Gorgeous home. We were two adults, a toddler, and pups. Definitely staying with Heather and Tony again in the winter. They are ski/board instructors!

Judy2017-07-18T00:00:00Z

Amazing little cottage. Tony and Heather were awesome and got us booked and checked in really quick and last minute.

Kourtney2017-07-19T00:00:00Z

This was a great place to use as a base for hikes along route 2. There's little cellphone reception so make sure to download maps/trail guides before leaving Gold Bar.

Marissa2017-06-25T00:00:00Z

Such a cute little cottage! We stayed overnight after a wedding and we had a great stay. Heather was very kind and welcoming. The room was clean and as described online. It's on a quiet little road and easily accessible from highway 2. The space felt very private. In the morning, we enjoyed some time on the pretty patio (with an awesome view of Mt. Baring) and then took a short walk to the river. We will definitely consider staying here again if we need to rent a room in the area. Thanks for a great stay!

The cabin was just recently featured on "Tiny House Hunting" on the FYI HD channel July 29th 2017. Check it out: Season4, Episode3. Tiny Vacation Sanctuary in Northwest Washington.
The cabin is best suited for 2 guests as there is just one bedroom with a queen bed. However, there is additional sleeping space in the loft that will accommodate 2 additional guests if they can access via ladder and use the twin airbeds with memory foam toppers and linens. The living room sofa also reclines into a full bed position if needed. Children are welcome with adults, however, please be aware there are SAFETY CONCERNS with the river and must be under the watchful eye of an adult at ALL TIMES!
The access from the cabin to the river requires the use of stairs.
Well behaved pets are welcome. Please make sure they are under owners control when outside and all wastes are retrieved and disposed of appropriately. There is a $15.00 nightly pet fee. We ask that guests pay the pet fee by cash or check when bringing a pet.

SKY- HI Cabin is located in Mt. Palmer Estates, Baring Washington. The location is convenient and easy to access being just 1/4 mile off of US Highway 2 yet still very private. The neighborhood is made up of privately owned riverfront residences. We ask that you be respectful and considerate of others at all times while at SKY-HI.

Tom & Kathryn's cabin is wonderful! Our family of 4 stayed comfortably and had everything we could need. The hosts are extremely accommodating and quick to respond to questions. The cabin is super clean. The location is fantastic- next to the river and very close to Stevens Pass. Thank You Tom & Kathryn!! - Alli & Lloyd

Alexandra2017-08-27T00:00:00Z

The SkyHi Cabin is a perfect place for a weekend get-away, or even a more extended vacation. My partner, dog, and I all stayed there over Labor Day weekend. We spent the entire weekend just relaxing at the cabin and exploring the river bed and nearby creeks. Tom and Kathryn have really thought of everything. The kitchen is well-equipped, the bed and bedding are comfortable, and the light switches are all labeled! There are neighbors, but we still felt like we had more than enough privacy and seclusion, which was exactly what we were looking for. We hope to stay again soon!

Leah2017-09-04T00:00:00Z

Just the perfect cabin! Everything was well thought out and we had a great visit. Tom and Kathryn were very helpful and really did an amazing job updating this cabin. Look forward to a return trip.

Jessica2017-08-06T00:00:00Z

We very much enjoyed our 2 nights at the Sky-Hi cabin. Located right on the Skykomish River with gorgeous views right outside of our window. We stayed in late summer so the river was down and the water did not come right up to the property, but it actually worked to our advantage and allowed us to explore and access the river, including some fishing for my husband. The cabin is small but quite cozy and there was plenty of space for the 2 of us. Comfy bed - felt like it had a memory foam topper. Kitchen was well stocked. Fire pit and lots of seating outside for taking in the beautiful scenery. Tom and Kathryn were great hosts. There are very thoughtful touches all throughout the house. They were in contact multiple times before our arrival to ensure that we had directions, key code, and all that we needed to have an enjoyable stay! We would definitely recommend staying at the Sky-Hi cabin!

Danielle2017-08-20T00:00:00Z

My husband and I stayed with our two dogs over a weekend, and it was a great escape. The cabin was very well furnished and had everything we could need for our stay. This will be our go to cabin for a mountain getaway. It is at a quiet location next to the river, and there are many hikes to check out in the area. The deck overlooked a great yard and the Skykomish River. We used the tranquility for reading, and the space couldn't have been better. Tom and Kathryn were attentive hosts who know how to make a place welcoming.

Maggies Love shack lives up to it name. Weather relaxing in the hot tub under the stars or enjoying a evening warming by the fire pit.
This place was remodeled completely from top to bottom. We have made this place the complete cabin getaway for the city person. It has dimmers on all lights to set the mood; full kitchen with granite counter tops and custom cabinets; hardwood floors threw out the cabin with wool rugs to keep you cozy; new couch with dual recliners and a bottle of Champagne.

This cabin was completely done over in 2008...from every door to light switch.
The kitchen has granite countertops with custom cabinets with fully stocked kitchen.
We have 2 bedrooms with one queen and one full size plush beds and down comforters with lots of pillows and built in lighting with dimmers. We just replaced the mattresses in late 2016.
We set the cabin up for you on arrival with a bottle of champagne and keep sake logo glasses. We even have postcards for you to send out to your friends to share your holiday.
We are in a small neighborhood of cabins and the only cabin on our side of the street. Everyone is very friendly and may wave a hello to you.
There is a small local store just less than a half mile away for supplies. Gold Bar has most supplies you would need. You can even order a pizza for delivery from Gold Bar just 12 miles away for only $5 more. I usually stop at the local Mexican Restaurant for dinner.
With Stevens Pass only 23 miles away we are a popular spot for the ski season and well as local hikes in the area.
******FULL DISCLOSURE: Our cabin community is just off highway 2 (as are most of the communities in the area). You can see from our reviews that most guests find our place quiet and only a couple have complained about the highway noise. We just want to point this out for full disclosure :-)
For the occasional power outage we even supply a generator.
Come and see why many honeymooners come to our cabin.
See you soon!

We have the only single lane suspension bridge just a short walk away. You can get to the river from here. This property is not on the river. It is just off hwy 2 just 2 blocks. For full disclosure you can hear the traffic when heavy and trains. Recent road work on highway 90 has increased traffic in our area this summer.

What a great place! Beautiful and comfortable inside with a great deck and fire-pit area. We also enjoyed the fantastic hiking trails nearby. Colleen was a great communicator and thought of all the little details: variety of toiletries, Keurig coffee maker, and even a couple of brand new toys for our pups! Thank you!

Alex2017-06-18T00:00:00Z

We really enjoyed staying at Maggie's Love Shack. Colleen was a great host and was very communicative. The property itself was lovely and we enjoyed soaking in the hot tub after daily hikes nearby. Our only complaint is that it was quite close to the highway and train tracks, and this would have been nice to know before booking the property. The bed would sometimes shake when a train went by, which was actually kind of amusing. :) We live in a very quiet neighborhood though so the highway noise may not be an issue for others.

Elowyn2017-07-28T00:00:00Z

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at Maggie's Love Shack. Colleen was a pleasure to work with and easy to get a hold of. We were completely blown away by the cabin and thoughtfulness of Colleen. On Saturday, she left a card for my fiancé' birthday (reason we were staying there) and even left a brand new dog toy. Little things like this kept us in awe all weekend. We highly recommend this place and will book again.

MITCHELL2017-01-08T00:00:00Z

We very much liked the quiet, the close proximity to Stevens Pass and the meet up location for Cascades Powder Guides. Stevens Pass Snowboard Shop and the little coffee place a few miles from the Love Shack were rad.

Dawn2017-01-18T00:00:00Z

Cozy cabin in the woods. Made for a nice, quiet romantic getaway with lots of amenities like the inside fireplace and hot tub. Minutes from Stevens pass and the puppies love it out there as well!

Levi2017-05-16T00:00:00Z

Lovely little getaway with all the amenities for a comfortable stay.

Elizabeth2017-04-02T00:00:00Z

This place is great. It's within earshot of the Skykomish River and it's just the right size for a couple to enjoy a romantic time together (we spent a week there and were not ready to leave at the end). The forests around the cabin are really neat, with moss covered trees and cute little streams running everywhere. On each side of the river valley there are majestic (snow-covered in Feb) peaks that we never got tired of looking at. We'll remember this trip fondly for a long time!

Sam2017-02-25T00:00:00Z

Great place to stay for a multiple day trip to Stevens without having to drive back to the city. The Cabin stays very warm once attuned to a preferred temperature, and the hot tub was perfect after a great day skiing.

This was an adorable little bungalow in a nice, secluded plot of land. It was easy to find, and we felt like we were in our own little world, even though there were some houses nearby. There is some cute little town within a 10-minute drive with some shops and restaurants, and the walk to the river was easy and quick. The house is furnished with comfortable beds and sofas, and overall it was very clean (except for the shower, which seems to have some problems with rust in the shower head and drain). The TV was user-friendly and good quality, and there was even a speaker for music, which we appreciated. The hot tub was glorious, the grill was a dream, and the grounds were well kept and beautiful. I would love to come back for another weekend getaway someday! Two things to note: 1) The tap water smelled strongly of sulfur, so I recommend bringing bottle drinking water. 2) There are no curtains or vertical blinds on the sliding glass door, so there is not much privacy in the living room, but all of the other windows, including the ones in the bedrooms, have new, functional blinds.

Kay2017-07-31T00:00:00Z

The place was great! Loved the hot tub and the fire pit. The fire pit was right under a clear patch of sky so we could see the stars. The bungalow itself was comfy and a great place to hang out for a weekend.

Alice2017-07-24T00:00:00Z

This was just the right place for a week of being in nature. The river, the mountains, the quiet. Definitely healing.

River's Edge radiates a cabin feel with pine interior and river-rock fireplace, but has all the necessities of home. Rustic decor such as clocks, radios and snow gear take you back in time and the river, just off the deck, drowns out most noises besides the occasional train. The Baring Store is just a walk down the road and serves as a restaurant and grocer. Gold Bar and Skykomish are each about 10 minutes away with more food options. Close proximity to hikes and 30 minutes from Stevens Pass.

The "neighborhood" has very low traffic and property is mostly very-private. Access to the river allows for fishing and splashing around during certain times of the year.

This is a very quiet neighborhood with a dead end on to the west and the store to the east. The road follows the river and several vacant plots allow for impromptu forested picnics or frolics. Sometimes a neighborhood dog will wander over... "Shoo! You unknown canine! Begone!" And then they disappear. Or play with them. It's not my dog. I don't care. Just don't bring strange animals in the house. Deal?

Enjoyed our stay. Everything you need and more at this cabin on the river.

Johnnie2017-08-06T00:00:00Z

Great Place. Very secluded feel. View is great and so is the fishing!

Josh2017-08-12T00:00:00Z

Rivers edge was a dream! I would recommend this place to anyone who's looking to get away for a while. We spent most of our time in the back yard on the huge deck with a beautiful view of the river and surrounding mountains. My wife and I love to cook and we're super thankful that the kitchen had everything we needed. Beds were comfy, bathrooms were very clean and every appliance worked perfectly. Can't wait to stay here again.

Lucas2017-07-16T00:00:00Z

Very nice place!

Jeff2017-08-27T00:00:00Z

This is a beautiful home directly on the river. It is clean, comfortable, and well maintained. The kitchen is fully outfitted to prepare espresso/cappuccino in the morning. One can also create great meals at night either inside or out on the gas grill while enjoying the river sights and sounds. I highly recommend this home.

Lisa2017-07-20T00:00:00Z

Cozy fishing-themed cabin right on the Skykomish river. Stayed here with some friends for my bachelor party and had a great time! Brendan was very helpful with coordination, and provided useful tips for the area. Definitely the right place if you're looking for a peaceful, quiet, and picturesque retreat!

Toby2017-07-23T00:00:00Z

Brendan's house is lovely as is the setting. It's more remote than we expected but this was our first trip to Washington so we did a lot of driving to go to national parks but it was fine. The beds were comfortable; the amenities were great; Brendan was always responsive to our questions. Only one problem was the day it was really hot and the house was overly warm when we returned, there were no fans to make sleeping easier. Of course, in the night it cooled off but until then it was hot. Just a minor thing our minds. Thanks Brendan. Kathy and Nils from Chicago

Beautiful house right on the river. We had a great time. we were able to swim in the river in August. The host was very welcoming and quick to respond to questions. We recommend rafting the Waenatchee, a 1.5 hour drive.

Jon2017-08-05T00:00:00Z

My wife and I, along with our kids and some close friends and their kids, stayed at this beautiful cabin for Memorial Day weekend. We were greeted with a nice card and flowers, and the place was clean and in great condition. The home owners, John and Lilah, were so helpful and kind with great advice and suggestions for fun activities in the area. The cabin is right on the river, and the layout of the house was perfect. There is a great loft area for the kids, and the downstairs was perfect for us adults to play some games and relax. We can't thank John and Lilah enough making our weekend great. Thanks, Brandon

Brandon2017-05-29T00:00:00Z

A group of friends and I stayed at this cabin for a weekend wedding nearby. It was so beautiful! It's right on the river, and the space is both cozy and spacious at the same time. Highly recommend!

Ben2017-08-13T00:00:00Z

The gorgeous home is perfect in every way. Spacious, can sleep many people even though it was just my husband and I. The river is in your backyard and there is a private beach area to just enjoy all day long. Kitchen has everything you need to cook all meals. Master bedroom has a massive bath tub with jets that is perfect. Lush and green foliage seen from every window and you cannot beat the morning views of the sun hitting the river. We loved the location, short drive to Deception Falls (a must see) and a charming small historic town of Index. We loved our drive to Stevens Pass and spent whole day at Leavenworth. John and Lilah provide everything you need to make your stay perfect. Quick to respond and they added a personal touch of a lovely bottle of wine, chocolates and a card with a gorgeous photo of the house. Nice token to add to a perfect vacation away from the busy life in LA. I am a super host myself and understand the hard work that goes into providing the perfect home for vacationers and I appreciated this home and all it had to offer.

Anita2017-08-23T00:00:00Z

This lodge is everything it says and more! Our family had a fabulous time and the owners were very helpful and always lovely. We were welcomed by a bottle of wine, chocolates and beautiful flowers, and we enjoyed the magic nature around and the beautiful home when we were indoors. We stringly recommned it!

Ana2017-07-24T00:00:00Z

Our home is nestled in the Cascade mountains in Baring, Wa. Enjoy nearby day hiking (also the Pacific Crest Trail), winter sports or just enjoy the outdoors and the amazing views of the nearby mountains. Summer sun, Winter snow or Fall colors! It is a great location for family/friends gatherings! Check out the "Guidebook" for more ideas!!

We are located in the foothills of the Cascades. 12 miles from the Gold Bar Supermarket. 20 minutes from Stevens Pass with skiing and snowboarding. 20 Min. from the Pacific Crest Trail . (We are in the town of Baring, WA.) 30min. from Monroe. 55 minutes from Leavenworth, the famous Bavarian Village. We are also 10 minutes from the Skykomish mini train as many locals in the nearby towns worked on the railroad, the mini train is great fun for the little ones! And adults love showing little ones the train in the distance that might pass by while staying at our home. They love it! **** See our Guide Book for local hikes, sights, skiing, etc.
***We have 4 bedrooms. 3 queen beds, one bunkbed with a FULL bed on the bottom and a SINGLE bunk on the top. There is also a one bedroom separate structure with sofa couch we call it the "Bunk House" it is steps from the front door. (No bathroom inside the bunkhouse.)

The neighborhood is mostly filled with like minded skiers, hikers and climbers who are either family, friends or ex-coworkers. There are walks in and around the area. And great hikes we can tell you about! ***See "Guidebook" . Also, The Pacific Crest Trail is near by. Der Baring store is within walking distance for forgotten supplies. Small selection and the food is not recommended. See Guide for dining recommendations!!

We had a really great time at the house - fire pit, hot tub, outdoor beer fridge all are very cool. A bit hard to find on GPS, but worth the challenge. Also, while the main outdoor area is very much open to the neighbor's house, they were very nice and didn't mind us being a large group outside at all. Close to Steven's Pass for skiing, and close to Levinworth for wine. Highly recommend.

Brian2016-02-29T00:00:00Z

Beautiful location and very peaceful with the exception of the occasional trains. A few members of our party were woken by a loud train that shook the house. Otherwise, the kitchen was well stocked for our cooking needs, the rooms were comfortable and very conducive to sleeping away from home. Beautiful sound of near by river adds to the scenery.

Sarah2017-06-11T00:00:00Z

This home is in a lovely peaceful setting. The home was clean and well stocked. We all enjoyed our stay and would likely come back.

Joy2017-04-24T00:00:00Z

Holly's house is amazing - truly a respite away from the city (and only a little over an hour away). The beds were comfortable, the hot tub was relaxing, the living room was fantastic for hanging out all weekend. We were able to hike Barclay Lake, spend some time by the river - both highly recommended.

Brice2016-05-31T00:00:00Z

Holly was incredibly responsive and helpful the entire time, from booking through our stay. She was also very patient with me, as this was my first time using airbnb. I planned a trip for eight girls, and her house was perfect for it! She had everything we needed, including an outdoor grill, skewers for roasting marshmallows over the fire, ample bath and beach towels, and even muffin pans for cupcake baking! The location feels very safe, and is right next to the river. We had a great Fourth of July weekend here!

Samantha2015-07-06T00:00:00Z

Holly was very helpful and responsive to any questions we had. We had very nice time in her beautiful cabin.

Brad2015-08-31T00:00:00Z

The closest hike is about 5 minutes away; several others 15 mins away, and many many more if you drive a little further.

If you're looking for a secluded, beautiful, everything-you-could-ever-want cabin, this is the place to book! It was amazing for the two of us, but it could also be very good for two couples. Everything is super easy to find in the home, and the information binder left on the tv table answered any and all questions we had. The hot tub, the gorgeous fireplace, the 3 different decks/balconies, the stone steps to the riverbed, the elegant and rustic decor, and the open and equipped kitchen made it a perfect and easy getaway with almost no headache getting from Seattle to the home. Also, if you live in Seattle or will be there a while and want to have a place to retreat to for a period, look at this place. It only took us an hour and fifteen minutes. To go from city to an escape at the base of a mountain, along a river, in less than 90 minutes makes this place highly desirable. We will be back, with bells on! Also, it was my boyfriend's birthday and they left him a little card, which was very very sweet. He said it was the best birthday he had ever had, except for when he got home from fighting in the Middle East two days before he turned 26. Thank you Janet! We would love to come back!

Linda was a pleasure to deal with - very friendly and super quick responses. I am definitely interested in staying here again in the future. Highly recommended!

Zachary2017-02-26T00:00:00Z

This cabin was a gorgeous spot as a home base for hiking and so many mountain and river adventures. We loved it and the hosts were amazing and responsive.

Kristen2017-05-29T00:00:00Z

Linda's lodge is very clean and has a great view. We had water problem since the water pipe was frozen. It was a bit inconvenient but Linda came fixed it the next morning and was very reponsive and helpful. The lodge is right by the river and a mountain. Amazing location.

Shaynnie2016-12-25T00:00:00Z

Grear plaxe and awesome views of the Mt Baring. Lindavis very responsive at all times. We would live to go back again!

Rohith Reddy2017-07-30T00:00:00Z

The weekend my family spent at River's edge retreat was everything we were hoping for , Linda's cabin was even better then the pictures lead us to believe. The decor provided an very homely atmosphere and the location was fantastic to get away from the city rush. The river was very low after the dry summer but I was still able to get to the river and pull in several trout during our stay. Linda was also very responsive to any questions we had. She updated us the the necessary information we needed after checking in and allowed us to stay later then checkout on the day we left. She was a perfect host, not intruding but very responsive. My family and I are already looking forward to our stay at the River's edge retreat. If you're looking for a quiet getaway to enjoy nature, look no further.

Jonathan2017-08-20T00:00:00Z

Linda gave very detailed instructions and the cabin was beautiful and peaceful. Great for a short secluded getaway

Cailin2017-07-22T00:00:00Z

I had a wonderful stay at Linda's place. The cabin is very comfortable and nicely decorated.

Matt2017-02-05T00:00:00Z

Linda is a fantastic host, and the cabin is beautiful! It has a fabulous view of the river and the mountain. Very cozy- we had a group of 5 and we were all comfortably accommodated. Close to Stevens Pass. We all had a wonderful time, and we will definitely recommend this cabin to our friends and family- and hopefully return soon!

Best riverfront cabin near Stevens Pass and on the Skykomish river. Large covered porch with hot tub and dinning table. Enjoy all year long.

Maggies Cabin is a charming riverfront cabin built in 1936 by the WPA. The amenities are almost too numerous to list:
Skykomish River (thrilling when it is high and serene when it is low). Mountain view (so close you could almost touch). Eagles (bring your camera). Fishing (bring your pole). 23 miles from Stevens Pass (bring your skis). Wildlife. Large covered deck with hot tub (swimsuit, optional). Patio furniture outside; leather couches inside. River rock fire place with glass door insert. Wool rugs; Full kitchen with coffee/ tea/ hot coco supplied. 2 bedrooms with lots of pillows and down comforters: Master bedroom has a queen and second bedroom has a full. Complimentary vino. Luxurious bathrobes. Souvenir cabin cups (to remember your trip)!
We also offer discount lift tickets to Stevens Pass.
My favorite thing about this property is the covered large porch! It could be snowing, raining or sunny and you can stay covered and enjoy the sound of the river rolling by. I have even spent the night outside on a blow up bed and enjoyed the river's sound as I slept.
There are many close hikes all around...I always walk down to the single lane suspension bridge....very romantic place too. I had friends get engaged on it.
Time to make a getaway for the Mountains!

My husband and I were married here. We bought the cabin with the idea of easy skiing. We then quickly found out how hard it is to leave. We were surprised how much we love the cabin all year long.
We are just over an hour from Seattle. Easy mountain getaway.

What an amazing place to get away! We went with another couple and we had the best time. The noise of the river is so relaxing, and its right out of your back door! It was rainy/snowy for our trip, but we still went on a little walk over the bridge with our pet children and enjoyed the outdoors. The jacuzzi is also a plus! We were in and out of it all day. The cabin is very welcoming and clean. Perfect for four people. Colleen was very wonderful and easily accessible when it came to planning. She was very flexible/ accommodating when I wanted to bring 3 pet children instead of 2, which is normally the limit. She even stopped by Saturday night and dropped off treats and toys for the doggies! So sweet. Definitely will make this a bi-annual visit for winter and summer. Thanks so much Colleen!

Melissa2017-02-26T00:00:00Z

Great place. Very clean and quiet. The beds were super comfortable and we loved the hot tub and fireplace. We will be back!!

Marcus2017-03-26T00:00:00Z

We had an amazing relaxing time at the cabin. It was a perfect get-a-way for the weekend. We even saw a bald eagle fly down the river. We spent most of our time reading on the covered deck when it was sprinkling or on the lawn when the sun was out. It was so peaceful listening to the river flowing out front while we read outside. It was the perfect place yto unplug.

Emily2017-04-16T00:00:00Z

What a great little cabin! Colleen is the perfect host. The place was clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed to cook, relax and get away from the city for a few days. She even threw in a complimentary bottle of wine. We had an amazing time and would definitely recommend this location to anyone looking to unwind in a serene, forest setting.

Tim2016-05-23T00:00:00Z

My sister and I stayed the weekend. The view from the deck was amazingly beautiful. Colleen was quick to respond to questions and kept us informed before and during our stay. We got to know Charlie (property manager) and his wife a little bit. Very good people, lots of fun & made us feel welcome. We'd both recommend Maggie's Cabin. Very cute cabin.

Sasha2017-06-11T00:00:00Z

This cabin is just amazing. Such a beautiful setting, the view, the river, could not be beat. We loved our stay here, it was so relaxing, with the hot tub and fireplace, just a cute little getaway outside of the city. The communication I received from Colleen was great, and we would definitely love to come again.

Claire2016-10-03T00:00:00Z

Colleen's cabin is wonderful. My boyfriend and I stayed here for 4 nights on a relaxing vacation. The kitchen is well stocked with cookware, so we were able to cook all of our own meals. The hot tub is very nice and private (there is a privacy fence to pull down so neighbors cannot see you). We thoroughly enjoyed the fireplace, too!

Jasmine2017-01-16T00:00:00Z

What a great place to stay! We had a fantastic couple of days here. Nice warm fireplace and heaters, clean hot tub in good condition and great view from there to the river! Nice porch with clean furniture to sit and watch the water go by. The bed was very comfortable as we're the bedding and we slept really well. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking implements as advertised, and the whole experience was just what we were looking for!

Guests can book only one night for Saturday. The check in time is 5:00pm every Saturday and check out time is 8:00pm every Sunday. Guest can stay in cabin for over 24 hours.

Beautiful place! Cozy and comfortable

angie2016-12-23T00:00:00Z

Brenda was a great host. Upon booking she immediately gave us information about the location that could affect the rest of our vacation and our flights. Everything about checking-in and checking-out was very simple and well thought through. The place had everything we needed and more, including big bedrooms and many many towels :) The scenery is beautiful, just like you see it in the pictures.

Angelos2017-07-31T00:00:00Z

Gorgeous location, very quiet and secluded. This was a great Escape for my hubby and I for some rest and relaxation.

Monique2016-11-06T00:00:00Z

Good overall, as described. Great location, very secluded. Not a lot of food options nearby, but Leavenworth is a reasonable worth-while drive

Tyler2017-08-13T00:00:00Z

Very nice cabin in a beautiful setting. The pictures of the river and mountains do not do it justice. Brenda was very responsive and even sent out a jacuzzi repairman on Sunday! There is a close neighbor cabin on one side of the property but not on the other side (which is not shown by the airbnb photographer). No air conditoning which is common but at least 3 oscillating fans for use. The master bed is very firm, so be aware if you prefer a softer mattress.

Peter2017-07-12T00:00:00Z

Photos show a beautiful cabin with updated appearance but it's older & needs to be updated & have something to give it a more welcoming& aesthetic appeal. Have to admit I was disappointed . View is stunning & sitting areas outside are great. Bed was comfortable, lots of fresh towels, well equipped kitchen. Required effort to get to the beautiful river out back due to being so rocky& path to the rocks is steep. Nice hot tub on deck. Place really needs to be shined up

Martha2017-08-27T00:00:00Z

Really enjoyed staying at Brenda's cabin! Oh it was such an amazing weekend. The cabin is right off the water and the view of the mountains was serene from the hot tub!! The home was clean and quiet and I would definitely stay again. Super close to stevens pass, about a 20-25 min drive.

katie2016-11-27T00:00:00Z

Lovely scenic location. The hot tub is wonderful as are the views from the living room and upper bedroom. It's a very sleepy town so not much to do besides ski but we were looking for a romantic retreat. if you are going with more than two people just be aware that there is only one bathroom on the lower floor. So if you are staying in the bedroom upstairs which has very steep steps it could be challenging to get down in the middle of the night to use the bathroom.

Stay in a nice little cabin in a safe neighborhood in Wild Sky Valley. Very close to Stevens Pass and right next to Skykomish River.
Get a hot shower, have a drink and a snack, watch your footy from the day and dry out your wet gear. Then sleep in a comfy bed and rest up for tomorrows adventure.
Skykomish River rafting, kayaking, fishing, tubing & the community offers 3 sandy/rocky beaches with fast and slow water for swimming. Welcome to couples, thru hikers, solo travelers & pets..

The house was great! Very close to sandy beach on the river. The swimming was so good. We'll likely come back.

Duncan2017-07-05T00:00:00Z

Comfortable cabin on a quiet street. Well stocked kitchen. Easy walking distance to the beach. We enjoyed grilling on the front deck and sitting on the upper balcony. There was some good bird watching from the house. We were there during some very HOT days, but the house stayed pretty cool, and there was a powerful fan that we used at night and slept fine. For the most part, Tre was very responsive and communicative. Would have given the place 5 stars, but for a couple of small issues that I've mentioned to Tre and that I'm sure will be resolved (a wobbly bed frame and an issue with the garbage removal - nothing major).

Jill2017-08-06T00:00:00Z

Beautiful and peaceful cabin in the Sky Valley. We were only able to stay one night, but very much enjoyed it. Make sure to head down to the river -- we did so on a peaceful summer evening, and it was perfect. The house itself is clean and beautiful. Tre is great with communication. We'd definitely stay here again.

Matt2017-07-10T00:00:00Z

Great place to get away. Really close to many hiking trails.

Martin2017-05-20T00:00:00Z

Great place! Close to the river and a quick drive to Leavenworth! 10/10 would stay again!

Abbie2017-07-03T00:00:00Z

Tre's place is about 25 minutes away from Steven's Pass. It was a nice cozy cabin to stay during our ski weekend. The kitchen was well equipped to make breakfast and dinner. Tre was very helpful and responsive even before we checked in.

Sneha2017-03-05T00:00:00Z

Great cabin with all necessary amenities. Very close to the river. My friends and I ended up chilling in the backyard which has plenty of shade from the trees during the day. Tre had setup the fire pit which was awesome, he even shared instructions on how to light it safely. We ended up using the fire pit to sit outside under the night sky until late. This was a memorable trip!

Raghav2017-07-30T00:00:00Z

Outdoor hot tub was filthy and smelled horrible. Water needed to be added as well. Dishes were put away very dirty. Indoor Jacuzzi shot out black gunk that didn't go away after repeated filling and draining. Shower was dirty. Fridge was dirty. BBQ was filthy. Host gave a $100 refund...which I appreciate. But, wish it would have been at least for one night fee...or at least the cleaning fee being as I had to clean things on my own. Housekeeping came the following day to fix hot tub...but water was just added with Chlorine...when it should have been dumped and refilled. Other than these (URL HIDDEN) was a cute place and a great location to the river.

Very best regards,
Tony and Heather

Our home was the original home in Riverwood development. We are surrounded by mature trees and landscaping. The grounds are well defined. River access is just a short walk down the road.Roads are plowed in the winter months as needed. Our water system is professionally maintained and may be the best tasting tap water on the planet. There is an automatic sump pump in the basement that runs on the rarest of occasions.

Great place. Heather and Tony are great with communicating. Area is nice.

Michael2017-06-18T00:00:00Z

A group of friends and I stayed at Tony & Heather's Seven Gables (including the cottage) for a weekend wedding nearby. The two of them are responsive and communicative -- we had a slight issue with the door, which Tony and Heather helped resolve quickly and without much hassle. The homes were beautiful and cozy, and it's a wonderful place to enjoy a relaxing weekend. Highly recommend! Thanks!

Ben2017-08-13T00:00:00Z

loved your unit only suggestions would be to leave check out instruction and maybe a note for the toilet paper.

Jen2017-07-23T00:00:00Z

Tony and Heather were lovely hosts. They were there to welcome us and provide excellent recommendations for food and fun. The little neighborhood was quiet and charming. Perfectly safe for Little's to ride bikes. Situated close enough to walk to the river, but not close enough It felt like a safety concern with small children. It was a little farther from Leavenworth than we expected, but there were several little points along the way to stop and explore. Our children cried when we told them it was time to leave the "cabin". Would definitely recommend.

Sophronia2017-05-29T00:00:00Z

We had a great stay at the cabin! So much room for guests, everyone gets their own unique space. Very nice to be able to walk right to the river.

This adorable 2 bedroom, 2 bath cabin has everything you could want at your fingertips, from the beach beckoning right across the street to a luxurious hot tub for a long soak to the wind whispering through the pines all around you. With plenty of room for four people to enjoy this carefree getaway, you’ll have an unforgettable escape to Puget Sound.

From the moment you step in the front door, you’ll know you’ve found the perfect home away from home. Warm pine floors and ceilings, cedar siding and the Norwegian-style wood stove give you that perfect cozy cabin feel, while the plush furniture beckons you to kick off your shoes and curl up with a cup of hot chocolate. You’ll love looking out of your window to take in the river just across the road, the mountains in the distance, and the old-growth maples, cedars, and hemlocks all around you. The sense of going “back to nature” is palpable in this cabin, which we’ve lovingly named ‘Light in the Woods’.
The kitchen is compact but beautifully appointed with everything you need to whip up amazing meals, and a little breakfast bar so your whole group can gather around to keep the chefs company - and maybe sneak a taste of the sauce simmering on the stove! Enjoy your meals at the pretty dining table indoors or bring them out to the porch for a little al fresco dining. A propane barbecue might even tempt you to do a little grilling while your party piles on the comfortable couch on the covered porch.
That covered porch lets you enjoy the beauties of nature and the cozy hot tub whether it’s rain or shine during your vacation, and we suspect you’ll spend a great deal of your time on one of the many outdoors spaces. There’s an uncovered porch with comfortable deck chairs, as well as a fantastic fire pit surrounded by seating - a great place to while away an evening toasting marshmallows and telling stories. Finally, there's a small picnic table with a shade umbrella for an easy lunch out in the beautiful woods.
Ready to tuck into bed? Retire to the master bedroom, which features a full-sized bed, a private en suite bathroom and private access to that covered patio and hot tub! The second bedroom is just as cozy, with a queen sized bed and lots of storage space. You can even add an extra sleeping space if necessary - a portion of the main living space can be partitioned off with a fold-out wall, and 2 twin beds can neatly fit into that semi-private room. It’s a great option if you’re bringing kids!

You’ll be close by all the wonders of nature, with river access across the street and the beach just 1000 ft west of the property. Venture a little further afield to Mt. Baring, Lake Serene, or Dorothy Lake - all just 10-15 minutes away - or take in some skiing and professional mountain biking at Stevens Pass, 22 miles away. It’s likely you won’t be able to do everything in one trip - which is just fine, since you’ll definitely want to come back to the Light in the Woods cabin for another magical getaway.

Welcome to our cabin, a little slice of paradise directly on the Skykomish river and only an hour outside of Seattle. Sit out on the deck and soak in the beauty or fling open the windows and let the sound of the river soothe you. In the Cascades it's all about nature and it will wow you. The cabin has 2 bedrooms and a comfy loft making it as suitable for small group retreats as it is a romantic getaway for couples. Don't forget your hiking shoes because there are many trails to explore nearby.

Beautiful views of Mount Index and the Skykomish River await you from the cabin deck and living room windows.
Enjoy a full kitchen with a Keurig coffee maker that includes a free assortment of coffee pods, 2 bedrooms (one with a queen and the other a full bed), a loft with a queen size memory foam mattress bed , free wifi, and hundreds of movies for when you stay indoors.
Take an easy hike to Canyon Falls or discover one of the many other hiking trails in the area. Stevens Pass is a short twenty-five minute drive with skiing in the winter and a mountain bike park in the summer. And don't forget to stop at scenic Deception Falls an easy fifteen-minute drive away.
Prefer river sports? River Outdoor Adventures is only a mile away in the charming town of Index where they offer rafting trips, kayak rentals, a fantastic cafe and so much more.
Bring your smore supplies for a fun night around the firepit or simply relax under the stars.

Our quiet gated community is in the heart of all the outdoor fun you could ask for, while still remaining away from it all for those seeking a little peace and quiet too. Are you a climbing enthusiast or river rafting fanatic? We are just a couple of miles from the heart of Index, WA where you will find both adventures to fill your days. And of course in the winter you can ski to your heart's content at nearby Stevens Pass.

We had a great time at the cabin. The view of the river is beautiful and we enjoyed the quiet time. There are a ton of outdoorsy recreation opportunities near by.

Lucas2017-02-06T00:00:00Z

I traveled with my husband and two older children. The house was just as advertised providing us with a great place to stay with a beautiful view of the river. It was the perfect little getaway for some family time and to experience some day trips.

Dawana2017-06-23T00:00:00Z

The cabin is close to many trails, which makes it super convenient for maximizing hiking time and relaxation time. The cabin itself was super clean and nicely decorated and communication with the hosts was simple. I would definitely stay here again!

We had a party of 6 for a snowboarding weekend at Stevens Pass, and Julie & Mikes cabin accommodated us perfectly. The view is absolutely breath taking to say the least! The wood stove was easy to use and kept the cabin nice and cozy. Julie got back to my questions fairly quickly, which made our transition smooth. I will definitely recommend this to my friends and family! Thank you Julie & Mike for sharing your beautiful cabin with us!

Tai2017-01-08T00:00:00Z

Julie was great she was in contact with us prior to our stay to ensure all of our questions/concerns were answered prior to arrival. The cabin was so cozy and just as described the view was beautiful. The cabin was very clean and made us feel like we were right at home with the feel of camping.

The cabin was great, we had a great time and the pictures don't do it justice. We came over the Thanksgiving holiday and there was snow up in the mountains. It was so beautiful and a great place to make your base for heading out to Stevens or Leavenworth. We had a bit of trouble getting the wood stove to heat up and not pour smoke into the room but we texted Julie and she responded right away with help and directions. Otherwise everything was perfect. We would love to stay here again.
